Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 62
Not long after Chu Jianyan arrived, Shen Xingzhi and Mu Feibai from the Five Elements Sect arrived one after the other.

Shen Xingzhi walked up to Shen Youqing with practiced ease, but seeing that she was drawing a talisman, she didn't say anything.

"Don't even think about getting a free meal," Lin Youran said to Mu Feibai. "You know Fifth Junior Brother's temper."

Mu Feibai was somewhat disappointed, but he did not leave. Instead, he spoke to Lin Youran, "I have just crafted a new magical artifact. Would you like to take a look?"

Lin Youran reached out her hand, "Pull me up, let's go to the room and take a look."

Mu Feibai reached out and pulled Lin Youran up, and the two walked towards Lin Youran's house.

Not long after the door closed, a protective barrier rose up.

Shen Youqing was focused on finishing drawing a talisman when he looked up and found that Lin Youran was gone.

"Where is Third Senior Sister?" Shen Youqing asked curiously. "I have a feeling that Third Senior Sister wasn't the only one who went in."

Liang Shimu pointed to the house behind him where a barrier had been raised and said, "They went to cultivate together."

Shen Youqing's eyes widened immediately.

what?
When did this happen?
with who?

She only drew a talisman, what did she miss?!

Upon first seeing Yan and Shen Xingzhi, they froze instantly.

Liang Shimu just said it so casually?

Wait a minute, weren't Mu Feibai and Lin Youran supposed to be going in to examine artifacts? How did it turn into dual cultivation??

The two of them crashed instantly.

Lin Jinyao seemed to notice Shen Youqing's surprise and curiosity, and she said, "Mu Feibai from the Five Elements Sect."

"Oh!" Shen Youqing responded, his surprise and curiosity instantly vanishing. "It's him."

That disciple of the Five Elements Sect must have fallen deeply in love with Third Senior Sister, and he has been persistent in pursuing her!

Seeing Shen Youqing's reaction, Lin Jinyao raised an eyebrow. "You know?"

"I first met my third senior sister in Xiangluo City," Shen Youqing tried to be tactful, "The situation at the time..."

"She ran away while he chased?" Lin Jinyao continued Shen Youqing's words.

Shen Youqing nodded.

Yang Yousheng listened while eating snacks, and he seemed to be really enjoying them.

Seeing Chu Jianyan and Shen Xingzhi still frozen in shock, Liang Shimu spoke slowly, his deep, magnetic voice carrying a seductive quality, "Fellow Daoists, don't be so surprised. We are the Hehuan Sect, such things are commonplace."

Upon first meeting, Yan and Shen Xingzhi couldn't help but exchange a glance.

How can you not be surprised?

In a house not far from them, someone might be practicing dual cultivation.

They had only heard of the concept of dual cultivation, but had never actually experienced it up close.

They haven't turned around and run away yet simply because they want to freeload a meal.

"Youqing, is this what you're after when you go to the Hehuan Sect?" Shen Xingzhi asked tactfully.

Before Shen Youqing could speak, Shen Quelin, without even looking up, said, "No, she went to the Hehuan Sect for freedom."

Under Shen Xingzhi's puzzled gaze, Lin Jinyao said proudly, "Our new disciples of the Hehuan Sect are required to attend classes in the academy for one hour every day!"

Shen Xingzhi: ?
"That's all?" Shen Xingzhi asked.

Lin Jinyao thought for a moment, then said, "The morning class is at 9:00 AM, and the afternoon class is at 3:00 PM."

? ?
Shen Xingzhi took a deep breath and raised her hand to gesture, "Um, don't you guys practice the basics?"

"You mean the fundamentals..." Lin Jinyao paused, trying to soften her tone, afraid of scaring her two naive students, "Do you mean the proper fundamentals or..."

"What?" Shen Xingzhi didn't react at first.

Chu Jianyan was too late to stop her and could only watch helplessly as Shen Xingzhi opened her mouth and asked.

Lin Jinyao tried her best to speak tactfully, saying, "Yin and Yang in harmony?"

"..." Shen Xingzhi blushed, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Her mouth is so foul!
What are you asking?

"Sis, don't be shy." Shen Youqing stood up, supporting herself on the table. "Isn't this normal?"

Shen Xingzhi looked at Shen Youqing's calm and collected demeanor, and her expression gradually became complicated.

Shen Youqing has become a seasoned veteran. "I have some books here, do you want to read them?" Shen Youqing asked.

Shen Quelin paused in wiping his longsword.

"Huh?" Shen Xingzhi was truly stunned.

Is this still her innocent younger sister?

"Come and get some rice." Xiao Ke's voice drifted from the kitchen.

Shen Youqing responded and went around the table to get some rice.

As if knowing someone would come to freeload, Xiao Ke specially prepared two extra dishes.

Shen Youqing served rice to Chu Jianyan and Shen Xingzhi.

When Chu Jianyan arrived, she saw Shen Youqing carrying out three bowls of rice, and she quickly took one of them.

Xiao Ke placed the food on the stone table outside the kitchen, then sat down and waited for everyone to arrive.

The dazed Shen Xingzhi was pushed over by Shen Quelin.

The group sat down at the table. Before picking up his chopsticks, Shen Youqing looked up at Shen Quelin and asked, "Aren't you eating?"

“I eat people,” Shen Quelin blurted out.

Shen Youqing paused for a moment, then offered his arm.

Shen Quelin gave Shen Youqing a slap, both amused and helpless, and said, "Let's go eat."

Shen Youqing withdrew her arm and was about to reach for her chopsticks when Chu Jianyan had already placed a perfectly sized piece of pork rib into her bowl.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Chu." Shen Youqing smiled.

When I first saw Yan, she smiled with her eyes crinkling.

Shen Xingzhi, her cheeks puffed out, looked up at Chu Jianyan and Shen Youqing.

When did the two of them become so close?
After the meal, Chu Jianyan took the initiative to use her spiritual power to clear away the dishes.

Xiao Ke brewed a pot of tea, then poured himself a cup and sipped it.

Out of curiosity, Shen Xingzhi asked, "Youqing, are you and Fellow Daoist Chu on good terms?"

"I've developed a deep friendship with Senior Sister Chu!" After saying that, Shen Youqing shamelessly exclaimed, "Sigh, what can I do? I'm just so likable~"

Shen Youqing's proud and smug demeanor made Shen Quelin roll his eyes without hesitation.

Shen Xingzhi is hard to evaluate.

For her, Youqing was indeed quite likable; he was straightforward and honest, never two-faced, and always very tactful in his speech and behavior.

But for Father and the Azure Jade Sect... well...

“Junior Sister Youqing is indeed very likable.” Chu Jianyan smiled brightly and said generously, “She is sincere, warm, and a benefactor to me.”

Lin Jinyao, who was standing to the side, immediately came over and sat down next to Shen Youqing on her own stool.

"May I ask what's going on?" Lin Jinyao asked politely.

Chu Jianyan looked at Lin Jinyao's innocent, curious, and gossipy expression and nodded, "Of course."

Liang Shimu and Yang Yousheng politely moved their stools to Xiao Ke's side, their gossipy expressions both concealed and not completely disappeared.

Shen Quelin looked up at the group of people crowded around the table, but didn't go up to join in the fun.

"Senior sister, when did you get here?" Qingya stood at the courtyard gate and peeked at Chu Jianyan, who was holding a teacup at the table.

When Chu Jianyan turned around, she saw several junior brothers blocking the doorway and watching her.

"What's wrong?" Chu Jianyan asked.

"I didn't see Senior Sister, so I came to look for her," Qingya said.

Lin Jinyao waved warmly and hospitably, "Since you're here, come in and have a seat."

The group exchanged glances and then walked in.

Yang Yousheng smiled shyly, then brought them stools.

After everyone sat down, Lin Jinyao looked towards Chu Jianyan.

"I went to the Crimson Feather Mountains to find the Ghostly Orchid and happened to run into Junior Sister Youqing..."

At first glance, Yan began to recount what had happened in the Red Feather Mountains.
